Hugh Dickins 1635f6a741 tmpfs: undo fallocation on failure
In the previous episode, we left the already-fallocated pages attached to
the file when shmem_fallocate() fails part way through.

Now try to do better, by extending the earlier optimization of !Uptodate
pages (then always under page lock) to !Uptodate pages (outside of page
lock), representing fallocated pages.  And don't waste time clearing them
at the time of fallocate(), leave that until later if necessary.

Adapt shmem_truncate_range() to shmem_undo_range(), so that a failing
fallocate can recognize and remove precisely those !Uptodate allocations
which it added (and were not independently allocated by racing tasks).

But unless we start playing with swapfile.c and memcontrol.c too, once one
of our fallocated pages reaches shmem_writepage(), we do then have to
instantiate it as an ordinarily allocated page, before swapping out.  This
is unsatisfactory, but improved in the next episode.
